Celestia Activates Fibre for Direct Rollup Data Uploads to Validators

Celestia has activated Fibre, a data-publishing protocol that lets rollups send data to validator-operated servers, opening a direct route for publishing blobs on the network. The protocol uses erasure coding on each blob, producing encoded pieces that readers can use to recover the full data from only a subset. Clients upload blob data in pieces to Fibre servers and can retrieve it from those servers, avoiding the conventional relay path. Celestia’s consensus layer records payment information and blob commitments, while the payload moves between clients and Fibre servers. The design keeps the data itself off the consensus layer.
